Only the Blue Pikmin, [[Bulbmin]], and [[Winged Pikmin|Winged Pikmin are]] able to safely traverse watery areas; any other color will simply flail around in panic before drowning (it has been observed, however, that certain [[Mushroom Pikmin]] can traverse water as well as Blue Pikmin can). While in water, the Blue Pikmin behave almost the same as they do on land. If they are idle and see a nearby Pikmin drowning in water, they will quickly run to them, pick them up, and throw them to shore. This action is often called the "Lifeguard Ablility." However, they will not rescue Pikmin if they are a certain distance away, so they can't always be relied on. This feature was removed in ''Pikmin 3. ''Blue Pikmin seem to be the most balanced Pikmin species; they have good attack power, durability, mobility and throw distance. As of ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', Blue Pikmin can swim in schools to swarm aquatic enemies, which makes fighting enemies such as [[Water Dumple]]s and [[Puckering Blinnow]]s much easier. | Only the Blue Pikmin, [[Bulbmin]], and [[Winged Pikmin|Winged Pikmin are]] able to safely traverse watery areas; any other color will simply flail around in panic before drowning (it has been observed, however, that certain [[Mushroom Pikmin]] can traverse water as well as Blue Pikmin can).

Blue Pikmin are the last species of Pikmin discovered in all three games. In ''[[Pikmin (game)|Pikmin]]'', their Onion is found in the [[Forest Navel]]. In ''[[Pikmin 2]]'', 5 of them can be found near their Onion chasing after Wogpoles in the [[Awakening Wood]] in the same area where the Radiation Canopy was found in ''Pikmin.'' To gain control of them, [[Yellow Pikmin]] are required to break down the electrified gate. Throw them up onto the ledge, then run around to whistle them. However, there is a [[Cloaking Burrow-nit]] buried outside of the arena that the Blue Pikmin reside in, so be wary. In ''[[Pikmin 3]]'', they are found in the [[Garden of Hope]] after rescuing [[Louie]] in the [[Twilight River]]. You must use the [[Winged Pikmin]] to pull the Blue Onion from the ground.
